"Probably" Staged Reading at Hampshire College
"Probably" is a play written by Owen Davis (AC '14) that explores language, sexual respect, and violence on college campuses. The story follows a group of college seniors who are consumed by their relationships and uncertain futures while still trying to enjoy their last semester--until whispers of an act of violence shatter their community, destroy the boundaries of friendship and intimacy, and cause them all to re-examine the way they treat, trust, and speak to one another.
"Probably" was originally staged in the spring of 2014, and served as an important contribution to the Amherst College community's conversation about sexual respect. Fangran Li (HC '11) revives the play this semester as a staged reading as part of her thesis work and in an effort to continue the conversation about sexual respect on college campuses.
The play will be performed at two different venues: Friday, February 27, 7:30pm at The Powerhouse, Amherst College Saturday, February 28, 7:30pm at Emily Dickinson Hall, Hampshire College
TICKETS ARE FREE BUT RESERVATIONS ARE RECOMMENDED. PLAY EXPLORES THEMES OF SEX AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE.
Both performances are followed by an optional post-show conversation about the themes of the play.
Written by Owen Davis (AC '14) Directed by Fangran Li (HC '11) Featuring Aine Hegarty (UMASS '15), Isaiah Holloway (AC '17), Noelle Micarelli (HC '14), Lilly Mommens (AC '18), Rob Thoma (AC '17), and Denzel Wood (AC '18) Produced by Reilly Horan (AC '13)
